It's a yes but why don't you try scratch building?It's much much more rewarding.Once you master the skills, your planes look better than the readymade planes. I amThe first few planes won't look very good.Further, since you have built the plane, you know each and every thing about it.Regards

I,after seeing ur suggestions went to the net and found the flitetest tiny trainer at 2k including shipping.But on their website they say that only the airframe is at that price and no electronics but just below this a list of things in the kit which is given which is as follows:1.airframe2.powerpod(mini)3.firewall(mini)4.Push rods5.control horns6.BBQ skewerCan somebody pls give me some clarity this.Would be very beneficial for me.

Hi, prabal and utkarsh.just saw ur posts.I checked on the rchyper site and found the tiny trainer as well as the power pack A kit required for the mighty mini plane series by flite test. It is at the same price and has been told that it is similar to that of the flitetest product. Should i consider it? I have also planned to go for an RCB6i avionics transmitter so that in future i don't have to buy a second transmitter. Is my choice right?

In addition, Get a battery (maybe 2) as one is not enough (Stay away from wolfpack and cheap lipos)A gens ace battery is available in the combo as an extra.Get a radio with reciever (fs i6)(Around 3.5K)And a balance charger. (DO NOT GET A B3)(A Imax B6 will do)(1.5K)

Since this is a larger plane it comes with beefier setup, you will be able to use the electronics on a variety of future planes (upto 48").Please DO NOT buy cheap and cloned stuff as it will be much more expensive in the long run. Do not make the mistakes that i have made earlier.

@dipankar joshi,Pardon me for repeating what I've often said on this forum.

If I wanted to learn to ride a bicycle, I could1. Buy one and get some help/instructions 2. Build one from parts3. Design a bicycle myself

Similar choices are available for entering RC flying.Have to be clear about one's objective.Learning to fly? To build? To design?Do not confuse these three.

The best way to learn to fly RC (without pain) is:1. Pay training fee and learn from an instructor on his model, with no expenditure on hardware2. Use a proven combo of RC and model, with or without a friend to guide you.

Or you can experiment with alternatives, with different probabilities of success!The alternatives can however provide a lot of joy, even if they fail to help you fly successfully!Regards

Rchyper.com has the i6 but for 4600. It's a newer version.Get the one with ia6 receiver. Not the multirotor one.Here in Delhi, we get the i6 for 3100 RS in Chandni Chowk.Yes, it has everything except the battery (which can be added from the Dropbox on the same product page)This along with the tx/rx and airframe kit is all you need.I hope you have knives, hot glue gun, soldering iron.Regards.I wish that these kinds of kits were available when I started in the hobby.All the best Clear skies to you
